Meguiar's Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer, Durable Car Restorer for Faded Black Plastic, Vinyl, and Rubber, Restores Deep Color and Shine, for Car Guys, 12 Oz

I have to completely eat crow on my first review of this which I gave only one star and recommend a different product. I blame Meguiars for half of it for not explaining how it seems to work. When you first apply this to anything you see absolutely no difference at all. It literally looked no different at all making me think it just didn’t work. However about 3 days later it actually looked restored and great. I guess it needed time to soak in? I have no other explanation for it just that it looked no different, then 3 days later it darkened up immensely and looks great now. I’m rewriting this review now 7 months later because it finally faded away and needed a 2nd treatment. I live in the brutal south Florida sun and it lasted 7 months before needing another coat. Buy it, it’s worth it…

A bit pricey, but looks and works better than Armor All. It looks so shiny on my dashboard and it cleaned up the fender flares on my friend's Wrangler. It turns grey, faded, plastic into showroom black...

*UPDATE* I am changing this review to 4 stars. I have been using this for almost a year now and it really does a nice job. I truly renews the plastic and protects it from the sun. I would give 5 stars, but as I mentioned below it does not have the shine that some other products do. I don't like shine on the plastic inside my car, but I do like it on the outside. Overall, this product is worth the money and I absolutely recommend it to others. Original review: I recently used this on my 2016 Camaro convertible. Living in the desert Southwest, protecting exterior plastics is important because the sun is brutal. Since my car is about 10 years old, some of the plastic trim had started to fade. I decided to give this product a try. I’ve used Wipe New in the past, which works, but it can be difficult and messy to apply. This product is much easier to use, which is what attracted me to it. The bottle size is generous, and now I understand why. Application was very easy and clean with no issues. It definitely improved the appearance of the plastic, but it did not restore it to a like-new look, and it does not add any noticeable shine. The finish is more natural and matte. After several car washes and a few months of use, the effect has worn off and I will need to reapply it. Because of that, I’m giving this three stars. I was hoping for a longer-lasting result and a bit more depth or shine. That said, it does work, and the big advantage is how easy and clean it is to apply compared to other products. If you don’t mind reapplying it more frequently, it’s a solid option. Overall, I would use this again and would recommend it, but there is definitely room for improvement.

Judge for yourself. I think it works great. Takes a lot of rubbing it in but I think the results speak for thier self. Highly recommended.

We live in Texas where the sun is unrelentingly brutal. The trim on my car had taken a little bit of a beating because of that and I like to keep my vehicle looking nice. I had done a little bit of detailing work and really wanted to give my car a little extra treatment and went looking for something to condition the rubber, plastic, and vinyl part of my exterior. I came across this stuff. Normally I'm an Armor All sort of gal but I've heard of this company and I went looking at the reviews. I wanted something thicker because I was sure that was what was going to be needed and I just wasn't satisfied with the products from Armor All so I decided to give this a try. I looked at a few of the reviews and some of the videos and I knew this was exactly what I was looking for. First off application is VERY easy and straightforward. No need for fancy tools, techniques, and the fact it is a cream and not a spray allows you to control where the product is going. A couple of the videos said a little goes a long way. No doubt it might if you vehicle is newer or the vinyl, etc has been very well maintained (and I'm sure it helps if you don't live in certain states like TX, NM, or AZ!). However if it's been a while, or in my case it has never been conditioned to my knowledge you're going to need to be generous with it. This isn't a bad thing, it just means the vinyl or other surfaces are thirsty and soaking it up. I estimate I easily used half the bottle on my first go on my 2016 Chevy Traverse. Well worth it and every penny spent on it, not that the price is bad at all. I don't think she looked this good when we bought her! I suspect if we treat her with this product regularly it won't take so much in the future. Nevertheless I've already gone ahead and ordered a second bottle. Though there is far less vinyl, rubber, and/or plastic on them my husband and two daughters each have a car and I intend to start treating those parts on their vehicles as well.

This stuff works great and last a long time. A little goes a long way

Pros: - Effective Restoration: Meguiar's Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer did a fantastic job on the faded black plastic trim of my car. It quickly revived the dull, grayish areas, making them look new again. - Easy Application: The thicker formula makes it easy to control the application, avoiding unwanted spills or overspray. Just a small, dime-sized amount on an applicator pad goes a long way. - Durability: With its UV clear coat technology, this product promises longer-lasting results compared to conventional trim care products. It dried almost instantly without leaving any greasy residue. - Versatility: It works on various non-painted surfaces like bumpers, door handles, and windshield cowlings, making it a versatile addition to any car care kit. Cons: - None Insights: If your car's black plastic trim is looking tired and worn out, Meguiar's Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer is a reliable and straightforward solution. It not only restores the original black appearance but also adds durability and UV protection to keep it looking fresh longer. A must-have for keeping your vehicle looking its best.

I tried the Meguiar's Ultimate Black Plastic Restorer, and I’d say it works, but it isn’t perfect. Right after applying it, my car’s faded trim looked noticeably darker and newer, which gave it a nice refreshed appearance. The application itself was very straightforward, and I liked that the finish didn’t look greasy or overly shiny like some other products I’ve used in the past. For a quick improvement, it definitely does the job. The issue I ran into is that the results don’t seem to last very long. Even though it claims to provide long lasting UV protection, I noticed the black finish starting to fade again pretty quickly after a few days of sun exposure and rain. I found myself needing to reapply it more often than I would like, and that can get frustrating if you’re expecting a product that holds up better in different weather conditions. Overall, I’d give it 3 stars. It’s good if you just want your trim to look better temporarily, like before a car show, a sale, or even just for your own satisfaction. But if you’re looking for something that will keep your trim black and protected for weeks on end without reapplication, this might not meet your expectations.

Très bon produit super efficace

صراحه يرجع لمعة بلاستيك و يضل أكثر من شهر انصح فيه

Tenía mis dudas antes de comprarlo puesto Que en el mercado actual ahí opciones más económicas que realizan la misma función que es dar brillo, sin embargo me lleve una sorpresa con este restaurador , es increíble si se usa tal cual las instrucciones indicadas da resultados verdaderos , el productos se vuelve uno con el plástico como si se absorbiera sin dejar grasoso el exterior , repele agua y dura varias semanas , en zonas muy decoloradas por el sol se debe ser más generoso con el producto aplicado En conclusión si buscas restaurar plásticos grisáceos ya sea en interior o exterior te lo recomiendo sin duda vale cada peso También si buscas proteger de los rayos UV tus plásticos ya sea de motos, autos etc lo eh probado y evita el deterioro de los mismos sin sensación de grasa Tiene buen aroma que se percibe mientras se aplica el producto en las zonas

Eccezionale, e dire poco. Ho usato il prodotto sul cruscotto della mia auto. E che dire meraviglioso, la plastica scolorita dal sole,e quasi grigia, con una sola passata è diventata nero con effetto lucido ma non untuoso.Così ho deciso di passarla su tutte le plastiche nere dell'auto. Sembra nuova adesso!!! Tra l'altro ha un odore molto leggero molto piacevole. Approvato consiglio assolutamente l'acquisto per ridare vita alla vostra auto.

It is a temporary solve, more of a plastic shine than a restorer, does not last long.
